() Liu Xia slowly raised his head, and when he saw who was sitting behind the dragon chair, the Ninth Five Emperor of the Tianji Dynasty, Emperor Bao, he couldn't help but froze there.
What stunned Liu Xia was not the majesty of this emperor.
Instead, there is an indescribable feeling of loneliness.
This emperor looks to be less than forty years old and is well maintained.
His face is like a crown jade, and his expression is full of energy.
A pair of eyes, calm and majestic, exuding an irresistible majesty.
However, there were patches of white hair on the temples, and his face was slightly tired. He was leaning on the dragon chair and looking at Liu Xia up and down at this moment.
Sitting there alone, Liu Xia felt a strong sense of oppression, as if facing him at this moment were thousands of troops.
However, despite this, Liu Xia can still feel him, that's why you are lonely.
It seemed that he had experienced enough lives and implemented enough changes to make him extremely calm, giving people an inexplicable sense of security.
"If I remember correctly, you are sixteen this year?"
The emperor asked softly.
"The Holy One is wise."
Liu Xia hurriedly bowed her waist and said, then lowered her head, not daring to look at him again.
Otherwise it would be considered rude.
"Zhang Tianhu."
"Wei Chen is here."
Zhang Tianhu bowed his waist and said.
"This time I traveled to the northwest and wiped out the holy religion, you played a huge role. Chen Mo, pass on the decree!"
Immediately, behind him, a white-haired, old-looking eunuch wearing a python suit bowed her waist and served her with a pen.
"I confer upon you the title of Guanglu, the Crown Prince, and the Grand Master. A hundred taels of gold, a hundred pieces of brocade..."
"I would like to express my gratitude to the Lord for His kindness. Long live Your Majesty, Long live, Long live."
Immediately, Zhang Tianhu hurriedly knelt down on the ground and said.
Zhang Tianhu was originally a member of the cabinet, and he was still a first-class official. Now he has no real achievements and can only be rewarded with some empty titles.
"Okay, today you will accompany me for the whole day. We will run all the way and go back to rest. Let us uncle and nephew have a good talk."
The emperor waved his hand and said.
Zhang Tianhu was shocked when he heard this.
Although he had only served the emperor for many years, he had never seen him be so kind to anyone.
It seems that the emperor really favors Liu Xia.
"Wei Chen resigns."
Immediately, Zhang Tianhu bowed and bowed, and then exited the door.
"Haoxuan, have you eaten?"
The emperor stood up, Chen Mo quickly held his hand, looked at Liu Xia and asked.
"Your Majesty, I have never used it."
Liu Xia cupped her fists and said.
"Haoxuan, when you see me in the future, there are no foreign ministers, so don't worry about these palace rules. You come from outside and didn't grow up here. Don't imitate my sons. When you see me, you will be like
It's like seeing an enemy. I'm so scared that I'm trembling all over, which makes me unable to enjoy any family happiness. I stay silent and pass the meal around in the Huaqing Palace."
This man named Chen Mo is obviously the emperor's most trusted person.
Even so, the old eunuch couldn't help but look up at Liu Xia. Obviously, he had served his master for so many years, and it was rare for the current emperor to be so close to anyone.
Even his four sons had a straight face when they saw him, making the princes feel as if they had seen a ghost.
On the contrary, he seemed to favor Liu Xia very much and was particularly kind to her.
"Slave, go right away."
After saying that, Silence retreated.
"Let's go, have a meal with me, and take a walk with me. I'm a little tired after discussing things all day."
The emperor said calmly.
"yes."
Immediately, Liu Xia and the emperor walked together in your deep palace.
However, behind the emperor, there were about a hundred eunuchs and guards, and the guard was very tight.
At this moment, it was already late at night, and there was silence all around.
Walking in the palace, you can only hear the footsteps of the emperor behind him.
"Haoxuan, you did a good job in the northwest this time. You were very courageous. You wiped out the Liang family and eradicated the holy religion, which really gave me a bad breath. Let all the families in the world know that this world is not theirs.
maximum."
The emperor stopped, looked back at Liu Xia and said.
"This is a wise decision made by the Holy One. It is nothing more than a humble minister's contribution. It is not worth mentioning."
Liu Xia said flatteringly.
"Haha, you little thing, you can say these clichés one after another. I heard from Tianhu that you have personally been to the Holy Church General Altar. I wonder what the situation is like there?"
"Your Majesty, the Holy Cult's main altar has strong troops and many masters. It's a pity that we didn't eradicate him this time. I'm afraid he will inevitably harass us in the future."
Liu Xia clasped her fists and told the truth.
"Speaking of this Holy Cult, I have a lot of fate with them. Back then, I once had a chance encounter with their deputy leader and even fought against him. However, my skills were not as good as others."
When Liu Xia heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised.
The two deputy leaders of the Holy Cult were really masters. I didn't expect that the emperor had seen them before, and they were defeated by them without knowing it.
This is really incredible.
"Then the Holy One already knew about the existence of the Holy Religion?"
Liu Xia was stunned, raised his head and asked.
"Haha, that's right. I have always known that they have been encroaching on the northwest for many years. However, you are not a leader, so you don't know the difficulties of being a leader. I originally thought that after repelling the pirates this year, I would order Zhao Yong to deal with them. However, you
I have eliminated this serious problem. After this time, if they want to make a comeback, I'm afraid it will be difficult."
"I am a humble minister, please give me a clear explanation from the Holy Spirit."
The emperor patted Liu Xia on the shoulder and said: "You kid, you pretend to be confused because you understand. I know everything about the northwest families. Before you left, you let the Sun family and the Huangpu family embezzle the wealth of those rebellious families.
Let the two of them check and balance each other. Not simple
Shan. In this way, Zhao Yong and their two families have become a tripartite force. It will be difficult for the Holy Cult to intervene again. Yes, I am very surprised that you know how to do this. It seems that
, the suffering you have suffered in the past few years has not been in vain."
Liu Xia was slightly surprised. The emperor seemed to be in the deep palace compound every day, but he knew the situation in the world very well.
As expected, he couldn't hide anything.
"Of course, this is one of the reasons. The other reason is that the leader of this holy religion is just a remnant soul of the demon clan. His soul is sealed in a place. The reason why you are like this this time
It went well, and I would like to thank him a lot."
"grateful?"
"Haha, the seal he is in will be loosened every thirty years. This time, he wanted to take this opportunity to break the seal and escape. Use your body as his body. It is a pity that
, his plan was known to the Tianxuan Dynasty. The three major sects and some noble families took action to seal him again. It is estimated that it will take a lot of effort for him to make trouble again. "
At this moment, Liu Xia was dumbfounded.
Little did he know that during the time he returned to the northwest from the altar, so many things happened.
No wonder, he made a big fuss in the northwest, but there was always no movement at the altar.
Moreover, Liu Xia clearly felt that there were the emperor's eyes and ears in the altar, otherwise, he would not know so clearly.
He originally thought he was lucky, but it seemed that all this had been planned by him.
This emperor is indeed extraordinary.
"What? Do I know too much?"
The emperor smiled slightly.
"Uh, no. Weichen just feels that the Holy One has planned a strategy and won a thousand-mile victory. Weichen admires it."
Liu Xia hurriedly flattered him.
"All this is due to you. You are indeed the blessed general of our Tianji Dynasty. When you went to the altar, you were noticed by the devil and canonized you as the Holy Son. This is something I didn't expect. If it weren't so
, I won’t be so awake yet. Because
Because, as soon as he sealed you, I knew that he might be out of the seal. Thinking about it, I was really scared. If we hadn't found out in advance and let the devil come out, whether it was our Tianji Dynasty or Tianxuan Dynasty, I'm afraid
It’s going to be a lot of trouble.”
While they were talking, Liu Xia and the others arrived at the Tsinghua Hall.
After sitting down, Liu Xia saw that this meal was a sumptuous meal.
The five-meter-long table is decorated with a variety of things.
According to the rules, the emperor naturally sat at the big table, while Liu Xia sat at the small table opposite him. Whatever the emperor ate, he was rewarded with whatever he ate.
As soon as Liu Xia sat down, the emperor waved his hand and said: "Why are you sitting so far away? Chen Mo, bring him a stool and come to eat next to me."
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.
The eunuchs were all dumbfounded.
Because, I am afraid that only the empress, the queen mother, and the princes can dine at the same table as the emperor.
As for Liu Xia, as a two-character prince, this is unique.
Silence was stunned for a moment, and then he waved his hand and arranged a chair for the emperor.
Liu Xia was also a little surprised, so he sat down timidly.
At this moment, Chen Mo was serving dishes to the emperor. The emperor waved his hand, took a chopstick of the dish himself, put it on Liu Xia's plate and said: "You and your father have suffered a lot for me. I remember them all. Eat, there is no need."
Proper etiquette."
At this moment, not to mention the other eunuchs, even Chen Mo was stunned.
The emperor personally provided the dishes, which the Queen Mother had never enjoyed.
The emperor seemed to attach great importance to Liu Xia.
Liu Xia was also very careful when going around like this.
As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, no joke.
I just tasted it briefly and then stopped.
"Pour the wine."
"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor said that you have strong anger, so it would be better to drink less."
Chen Mo hurriedly advised.
"It's okay to be happy today."
The emperor waved his hand, and Chen Mo hurriedly brought the wine and filled it for Liu Xia and the emperor.
The emperor raised his wine glass and said, "This glass of wine is my cup of wine to help you catch the wind and wash away the dust."
After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.
Liu Xia also finished drinking, and the emperor gave him food again.
Chen Mo was dumbfounded when he saw it.
"Boy, I heard that you looted a lot of people's wealth and wealth in the northwest this time."
At this moment, Liu Xia was as if she was dreaming. When she suddenly heard these words, she almost choked to death.
"Ahem, cough, cough. Weichen, Weichen knows his crime."
When the emperor said this, he must have understood everything. Why was he making excuses?
However, when the emperor saw his embarrassed look, he was not angry but laughed and said, "Look at your potential."
"Wei Chen deserves to die, Wei Chen deserves to die."
